I've always had bad experiences with guys. Am I overthinking things?

I've always had bad experiences with guys and I've never had a boyfriend. Because of all these experiences, it makes me paranoid whenever I meet a guy, I'm afraid to get too close to him Because I always expect him to walk out my life pretty soon and I don't want to get hurt. I recently met this guy, we've seen each other 5 times now, he's always come to see me, and he texted me every day. Now since Tuesday he's stopped that and doesn't really reply to my messages and I'm freaking out because he's lovely and I thought that it might actually go somewhere this time. He's been ill since Tuesday and I'm not sure if this could be the reason he's not being himself, and when he does reply he's still lovely and talks about seeing me and being with me. Am I just over thinking things of should I accept that it's not going any where and move on?

What are some of your past experiences that were so poor with men? If there's a pattern, it would be good to identify it. After all, sometimes we are attracted to that which isn't good for us, like sugar/sweets. The more details, the better for helping you out.

As for your current guy, calm down and put away the phone. He's probably just in need of rest. If you guys have been hitting it off prior to the last couple of days, your fears are most likely irrational. When I'm tired and sick, I want to be in bed with the phone turned off!
